Delta Air Lines Flight 1141 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (273 words) |
 | Delta Air Lines Flight 1141 was a flight that flew from Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport to Salt Lake City International Airport in Salt Lake City, Utah. |
| Two facts were primarily blamed for the tragedy of flight 1141. |
| The crew had not ensured that the wing's flaps were properly positioned for take-off, and the plane's unprepared take-off horn was not functioning. |

| Along with using an unusual (for the time) display technology, the 1141 also provided a number of other functions that were ahead of its time. |
| The 1141 has a single memory register that operates as an accumulator, with "M+" and "M-" keys adding or subtracting the number in the display from the memory register, and placing the result back into the memory register. |
| During calculations, the 1141 lights all decimal points, and leaves the displays active, causing quite a light show on longer calculations. |
